Despite the usual terrible media writing on all things aviation this article is pretty interesting. A USAF B-1B bomber Captain assists a First Officer in landing a 737 after the Captain suffered a heart attack.

I would have loved to have heard the exchange in the cockpit with the FO asking him what he flies:
"A supersonic bomber for the Air Force. So what can I do to help?"
Now before anyone asks, YES the FO could have done everything on her own and landed the 737 just fine. Nobody on that plane was close to anything resembling mortal danger. However there would have be a substantial workload on her, handling all the checklists, radios, setting up the aircraft for landing, and of course landing it too. Getting another pilot in there to take some of that workload off of her (reading checklists, working the radio for her) was an added bonus that made it much easier.
